I am so hungry. Clear liquid diets suck. I am doing all kinds of things to keep preoccupied. I read the posts to stay focused on my diet. Thank the Lord only one more day until surgery. then Clear Liquids again.

PLEASE STEP AWAY FROM THE DOG!!! Just kidding. Boy do I remember how hard it was. I counted the days down until my surgery.... couldn't wait to be off of that pre-op diet. Then I realized that after my surgery, I was going to be on the same diet but with a different name "The Post-Op Diet". YIKES!!! You are almost there and it looks like you have done GREAT so far. Before you know it, you'll have your band and you'll be eating "real" food (easy for me to say... right?) Really... keep up the good work and good luck on your upcoming surgery!! Becky

you can ONLY have Clear Liquids PRE???

My Dr. said just a liquid diet.. so Protein drinks are acceptable. For hunger, try Special K Water drinks... and South Beach too. They have Protein.< /p>

I just recently went to the health store and got some Isopure CLEAR drinks. They have 40g of protein!! That will help with your hunger pains!

Good luck!!!! I will be in your shoes in about 2 weeks!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
